Devil May Cry 5

Yeah, Nero is pretty fun. I enjoyed playing him the most.
Dante is pretty nice, but you really have to get the hang of switching styles, and I didn't like V too much.

I didn't like V too much.

Don't think anybody even touched V after the initial playthrough. He really takes some of the energy out of the game, it's only 3 or 4 levels that are mandatory but he is a damper. Wish it was just Dante & Nero.

I like V, it's pretty fun to be massacring demons all the while you read poetry near then. Comparing him to the PC's in 4, the only ones better than him are Vergil and Dante
Sure he's not as versatile and fun as Nero or Dante (because he doesn't have as many moves as both those 2 have), but still there's a good amount of depth to him.
People are not aware of that complexity because barely anyone plays with him.

 

[CthuluIsSpy]

Whilst he does have a lot of depth, its tricky to get into it because of how differently he plays. You actually want to stay away from the enemies with him and let your summons do the fighting, which means that you have to keep track of your position relative to the enemy and your summons, and that can get awkward.
When you manage to pull it off though it feels really satisfying. My first S rank with him felt so good.

A character like V is more suited to an action RPG. When you start DMC you want to play characters like Nero, Dante and Vergil. But imagine summoner class in Dragon's Dogma 2, they have to do it.

 

[DJOGamer PT]

Well I can't blame for wanting to try something different, specially considering in the end while not as good as the other two, he is still fun. And what I specially appreciate is the fact that he has his own unique playstyle, much like Dante and Nero. Because there are alot of action games out there that give you different characters to play but most of them aren't really distinct.

Now if they indeed port his gameplay to Dragon's Dogma 2...

He is what keeps me from replaying on unlockable difficulties. Even 4 missions with him is too much for me.

 

[DJOGamer PT]

Dude it's 4 missions, that last at most 20 minutes...

Still, you can always go to the DMC5 Nexus, there already some mods for character swapping (the co-op mode also let you do it).

 

[Suicidal]

I liked playing V on DMD cause you can actually die (quite easily in fact) and you need to learn to abuse his various mechanics to avoid damage.

It shouldn't keep you from playing DMD, you can just abuse gold orbs to get through his missions. Dante & Nero truly come alive in higher difficulties.

I didn't say I was having trouble playing him, I just don't wanna play that faggot. Tried looking for mods that would allow me to use another character on those missions or skip them but wasn't successful. I did see a "naked V" mod though. If somebody knows where to find a mod that lets me avoid him, feel free to link.

I literally posted about this in the previous page.
Sigh.
Here you go:

DMC 5 Co-Op Mod (you can also swap character with it)

Turbo Mode + Character Swapper Mod

 

[Multidirectional]

Thanks, I wasn't following the thread lately. Anyway, from reading comments on that mod seems like loads of people are getting bugs when character swapping that prevent them from being able to finish missions. So not sure if it's worth the reinstall. Ability to just skip V's missions entirely would be a preferred fix for me.

 

[DJOGamer PT]

Man I sure hope they make some more content. It's really the only thing is this game needs.

survival horror

 

[CyberModuled]

Surprised it took as long for someone to do it but better late than never.

 

[Dedicated_Dark]

How is he doing that part from 4-8 seconds? Just trickster dashes with Summon Swords?

 

[sullynathan]

Holy shit, it's back.

 

[Sukhāvatī]

 

[DJOGamer PT]

Great!
Now gives us more content for this game dammit!

 

[Machocruz]

Yes. Then get on Dragon's Dogma 2 you sunzabiches

 

[Deflowerer]

Not sure why he posted it now. Fiscal year 19 results were out months ago, so old news.

Though it seems the sales numbers haven't been updataed. Probably an old doc. still says sales at 2.1 million.
Regardless disappointing sales as Sekiro reached 4-5 million & wasn't even that good. Infact I would consider it among From Software's decline.

Edit:
Found it.
DMC5 is at 2.5m sold.

Shame.
DMC4 is at 3m.
DmC is at 2.4m.
